She was different and such a good girl. Aise lagta tha jaise doll hai (Look, all of us youngsters, who are of the village type, are attracted to blondes. This opposite attraction, it happens. She was different and such a good girl. She looked like a doll)."

Pehle vala romance hota tha, voh dekhne maatr ka tha. Kitna acha kaam kar paye na hum log. Har film dekhiye, gaane superhit, filmein hit. (At that time, affairs didn't happen like nowadays. We used to create a ruckus. It happened, it seems, it is going on. Earlier, the romance was just a sight to behold. We were able to do such a good work. Watch every film, the songs were superhit, the films were hits)."
